Persuading git to handle symlinks correctly on vboxsf filesystem
问题 When I git clone a repository with symlinks on a vboxsf filesystem the symlinks all work fine, but git always say that the file has been updated, even if the change is added to the repo. When I use it on the ext4 filesystem on root, everything works fine. I am using a Vagrant VM on Windows. The vboxsf filesystem is the type used for a directory shared with the Windows host. It is capable of supporting symlinks (despite the underlying filesystem being on Windows). $ git --version git version 1
